TIHE TABERNACLE. MAJ, WHITTLE'S ADDRESS, Tt is cstimnted that there were 4,500 people at tho Tabernacie Iast night, £, e., as manyns would make ten average Sunday congregations in o many first-tlass churches, and yet i& was not o Inrge sudience for the reviyal meeting, Quite a number of the membera of the Metho- dist Confercnce, now In scasion at tho Cente- nary Chureh, were prescnt, among them the Rev. Drs. Hiteheock gnd Walden, of Cincinnatl, the Western agents of the Mcthodist Book Con- cern, . After the opening hymn, “Stand up, stand up for Jesus," the Rev. W. W, Patton offered a prayor, which was followed hy singing ** I will guide thee with mine eye. 'Then came the Scripture lesson from the clghteenth ehapter of the FIrat Book of Kings, belng the account of the trial institutea by the l'rurmm Eljjah be- tween himself and the pricsts of Baal, Mn), Whittle remarked, before reading the Jesson, that he felt grateful for the many prayers which had been offered in his hehalf {n viow of this sudden rcnpannlbl)!ta which had come upon him. 1le had been xrcnt‘y Llesned, nnd hoped tho aidded splritual power would bea perma- nent thing with him. Mr. Bankey sang the solo, ¢ Nothing butleaves, " and the llev. Dr. Nicholls, of St. Lonls, led In pm{ur. Ahgmn, ** Am I nsoldier of the crosst” and then a solo and trio by threc out of the four ehief Guapel mngern of the world, Messrs, Sankey, Blivs, and Btebbine—Phillp Phillipa would have cum}xlnlnd the quartetto—cntiticd, ** Who I on the Lord'n 2ide?'’ which was ono of tho most ene Joyable pleces of music yet given, THE ADDIESS. How long halt ye hetwren twn opininfons? 1f the Lord be God, follow Him, hut if Baal,thon follow hioy, =1, Kings, ¥riif., 21, Goi was ?mpnruui for a great rovival amang 1tls people, and one of the wayu e took was Lo send a drought fo the land. For three long vears there haa peen no rain, and now the Prophet Elljah makes his appearnnce, and the people come toe wether at hia Invitation. hey had pono off into hlolnl?. worshiping Boal, wlio waa the god of that wicked woimtn, Jezebel, in order to win tho favor of the Royal court, and having also an altar to Jehovah fu nnother corner, vainly trying to gcr:lo Lwo wmasters, which onr Lord declarcs cunnot o done, 1 want to call your atlentlon to four positions that Elijah took, which lllxlgficut four points In the Gonpel of Jesus Christ and the way tha loly Spirit «eals with slnners: » 1. When the Prophot aeked thom the question of tho text he put them to silence. "’{Bm people answered Lihn not a word," Juet 8o the truth, ns it 1 In Jesux, when it cames to wan it puts him to ailence. 1le bns not a word to say for himeelf, but ia forced to admit that i 1x n lost sinner. 11, lzll{nh proposes Lo test the claima of Jehovah and Bual by means of a revelation. It can't bo dune by nrgument or by plilosophy, bat the God thot auswercth Uy firo, that givesu revelatlon of imeelf to Iis worsiiiers, Tof hiin o God. Bu the grace of God that bringeth salvation 18 not o matter of speculation but of revelution, And here was the weak point with the pricsts of Baal. They were 450 in number, and the prophet of Je- hovah was all alone; they did a great deal of pray- Ing, they leaped upon the altar, they cut theme sclves with kmives and stones: but atas for thom! there was no unswer, Just o with those who nro trglngtu be religlons without coming to Chrlst. Thoy unly brufgo themselves and atfiict themselves v no purpcee: thero is one God who reveals Him- self 10 those who Pmy. III, In tho thirticth verso we rend that Elljah enid to the people: ‘*Come near unfome. And all the peopla came near unto him, and ho repaired the altar of tho Lord which had been broken down'™ ond made rcml{ the sacrlice, Docs this not ro- mind vou of the words of Jesus: **Come unto Me, all yo that labor and aro heavy laden, and I will give you rest? 3 en again this ballock wns an offering thot was to bo whally burnt up, It was called the n-ccndhui ring. It ascended to Heaven in the Gro and h ‘nt down a blcesing In rosponse. S0 Ho who is o macrifico for sins I gono up to leaven, nnd from heaven Ie sends duwn the Dblessings of Hin Jove and .grace and E’ilv[“,‘w‘ Our faith rests on the resurrcction of ielat, A¢1f Clirfst be not risen our preaching ia valn, and your faith Is also vain. ™ And now tho question comes home 1o ns, Tow long halt ye between two opinfons? Do not de- celve yourselves, You cannot compromise this thing, and try to mako it appear that your Infidel. ity and unheflef are oniy another alde to the same sibject, It I3 ona of two opinions; an oplnlon in favor of Chitlst, or an opinion in favor of the dovil. Which of tleeo two opinions do you hold? Whalch of tho two lves aro you living? “What Is yonr tes- timony on this subject? Whnt do your famlly, and the Church, and tha \world think on thin subject iu viow of yonr conduct and conversation? Bome of you have just religlon enongh to spoil this world for you, and not enough to give you any joy In viow of the world to come, You are ncitier hot norcold, You don't follow cither God with all your heart, ITow long hait ye? One of the things the Church wants §a to get rid of the half-hearted members, not b{ golng ovar to Raal, hut by coming aver to Chrlst, heart and soul. 1f wo would only do as we_ profess to beliove, {f wo had a cnm:rerntlon ne largo us this of people wha had fully scttled this question, and who wera wholly on ‘tho Lord's alde, we could shake this “city; we could shake the. contlnent: we conld shako this world. I came to thisclty twenty years ago, Of the soven clerks tn tho ploco of husincss with me all nre dead but two, As far as I know, they died without Christ, and I some- timen agk myself **I¢ T had boen more falthful to tham might Inot have led them to the Saviorr™ Tha Baat that has crept into this community Is no lile fmago or atatue, bnt an setive, vigliont devil, Ttlsnoteafes to trifle with him, The Msjor closed with an carnest nn{'nnl to busi- ness men who had the namo of belng Christians to declare themselves on the Lord's side, and, before offcring the closing prayer, naked those in the con- grewation who wished to declare thomselves ns azeinst linal and for Christ to risu. Nenrly the ontire congregation roso to thelr feet, thus show- ing that the attondanca {s chiofly of tho professed Chiristians of the city. THE PRAYER-MEETING.

A Big Rush of Visitors en Route for Philadelphia. How Some of the Sight-Seers Conduct Themselves, Dircctions to Those Desiring to Do the City in Two Days. Bpectal Correrpondence of The Tribne. Wasintxotox, D. C., Oct, 5.—When the cele- bration of the Nation's independence was plan- ned, Jittle thought was given to the benefis that wauld come to its Capital City. But, as a prop- crtyiess man cnjoys his neighbor's fine grounds, with none of the expense and labor of cultivat- ing them, so Washington, being next door to the City of Brotherly Love, catches the in- spiratfon of her hardly-carned enthusiasm, and quictly garners the frufts that are constantly dropplng over the line into her lap, The Baltlinore & Olfo Rallroad wiscly put a pleture of the Capitol upon thely advertisments, and placed the words, “A trip to Washington without extra charge,” in every rallrond-oflice and post-oflice, and at every street-corner throughout the United States. Other lines wero not slow in coming to compet- Ing rates, and, with fares as low as the times nre hord, every train for the last four weeks has here exchanged (ts undreds of tired aud dusty Centennial pilgrins for a company still more wearfed nnd wonder-worn. It must be somne- thing like tho days of old, when all the people went yeary to the City of Jerusalem to be taxed; it is qulte true that many times there has been no room for the strangers at the inns, and they have been obliged to seek shiet- ter at private houses, The city wears NO COMPANY MANNERS} no flaga flutter; no bands play; the principal strect 18 torn up, and almost impassable; and Washington Monument remains the sanie hall- finished relfc of antiquity. But, as the country at largeis to blame for what Is done or left undone in this city, few dls- paraging rcmarks - are made; it I8 not customary to severely eriticise our awn homes, and the treatmeut we recelve whilo there; so fault-inding Is left for Philadelphila, where it is 8o thoroughly overwhelmed with delight and wonderment that it rarely comes to the surface, and soon dies If it does. During the summer Washington has been favored with visltors of every grade of socicty, from a cultured Emperor to n band of Indiang fresh from the Plains. Yachting-clubs and rifle-teams, aud representatives of all orders and societles, have wade excur- glons to the city, and been hospitably treated by brother-organizatious. DBrides with- out Bumber have worn their fresh, pretty suits first'in the Clty of Magniflcent Distonces; and tired, heart-sick people lave here found the change that they so greatly needed. The Apaches, who épent n week here Jast month, were the observed of all observers; they wore civitlized clothing, and thelr entire conduct was ecorous and dignl- ficd, reflecting great credit upon thelr manage- ment for the'last few years. If the ‘“murder- . ous ARnchzn M cau thus be civilized and 1nado law-aolding citizens, what will not time and the Christion religion do for the ‘¢ bloody 8joux,"— for even Sitting Bull and his bravesi™ Christian- ity and citizeoship are what the Indlans sliould receive at the hands of this Ercnl, ne](-llzuvcrnmg natlon.
